APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -A DTI scanner can image white matter lesions, which would not show up on any other MRI techniques. Not only can DTI be used to identify tumours but also to study the way information is processed to control muscles and development during childhood.

Detailed explanation-2: -Intravenous (IV) gadolinium-enhanced MRI is typically used to help create a clearer picture of a brain tumor. This is when a patient first has a regular MRI and afterwards is given a special type of contrast medium called gadolinium through an IV.

Detailed explanation-3: -The results of a CT scan can also provide more detail than a standard X-ray. CT scans can: find certain types of brain injuries.

Detailed explanation-4: -Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan MRI scans are very good for looking at the brain and spinal cord and are considered the best way to look for tumors in these areas. The images they provide are usually more detailed than those from CT scans (described below).

Detailed explanation-5: -INTRODUCTION. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is by far the most used imaging modality in patients with a brain tumour.
